erin mcpike for us in rhode island. erin we appreciate it.fter the bombing that a man by the name of misha is this person who, quote, brainwashed his nephew into radicalism. well today, a u.s. government official told cnn that the fbi has now interviewed this rhode island man, named misha, about hiso the tsarnaev family. cnn also spoke with christian carl of the new york review of books who says he found and he interviewed this man who says his name is mikhail allakhverdov. >> when i asked him about tamerlan tsarnaev it was quite -- he made it very clear he had indeed known him, he did not specify any details about the natu relationship, but was very very very intent on explaining that he had nothing to do with any kind of radicalization. what he told me was, i was not his teacher. if i had been his would know that doing som was wrong. so he was very very emphatic about that. very upset. and went to great lengths to convince me that he really had nothing to do with this. and he made the point, he claimed to me that the fbi had told him that h

erin mcpike is live in boston with more on that. erin, what have investigators learned from the suspect? >> isha, right now we know that dzhokhar tsarnaev can't speak very well. but from what he has indicated to the authorities, he says -- for what he has indicated, no foreign terrorist groups were involved in the bombing. the brothers were radicalized online. they say it's not from online communications, but rather from watching videos online. in the last thing we know is that his older brother tamerlan, the suspect who died a few days after the attacks, was the driving force behind them, isha. >> you touched on his difficulty in speaking. what do we know of how these questioning sessions are actually being carried out? how is he communicating? >> a lot of the questions have been yes or no questions basically, and what we have read from the transcript from that hearing earlier today was that he nodded eded affirmatively is the judge there put it in the hearing. >> do investigators feel that they're any closer, and mentally, these ar

jake tapper's in boston and erin mcpike is at the family home of tamerlan's widow. we'll begin with jake. jake, bring me up to speed with where we are with the latest. >> reporter: there's a lot, piers. get ready. first of all, we know that the fbi spent about 90 minutes in the home of katherine russell, the widow of tamerlan tsarnaev. they were interviewing her and i'm sure erin will have more on that. in addition, law enforcement officials and other sources say that one of the things that law enforcement is looking into right now is female dna that was found on one of the trace elements from the bomb. they caution this doesn't necessarily mean anything. it could just mean that a specific female came in contact with ingredients later used to make the bomb, but of course, one of the things they're checking out is whether or not this dna matches katherine russell, tamerlan tsarnaev's widow, or even the daughter. again, they caution this does not necessarily mean anything, but they are looking at this because this dna is that of a female. in addition, we know that the

erin mcpike is "outfront." there are questions about the older brother's wife. 've only seen her in pictures. what can you tell us? >> we did go into the attorney's office today, erin. but they're being very tight lipped. i spoke to katie russell's attorney on the phone a little bit ago and she's still not saying anything. she's being very quiet on behalf of her client. won't say if katie russell sat down with authorities. but i can tell that you the presence this morning of federal agents and of media was very heavy at the house earlier today. it's greatly diminished now, erin. >> and you also had a chance to talk to some people who knew katie. what do they tell you, erin? >> well, basically, they're saying that katie russell came from a great family. everyone likes her sister. they thought katie was very well liked, dependable, hard-working. talked to her younger sisters today and this is what she had to say about that. >> honestly, such a surprise. i -- when i heard the news. i didn't believe it at first. just because it's, you know, especially in north kingst

the lead's erin mcpike is here with more. erin, i can understand both sides in this argument.rstand why it shouldn't be taxed and yet clearly it is why some people go there. >> plenty of the so-called fringe benefits are considered totally acceptable like gyms, gym classes, reference, that kind of thing. the big concern is that when it comes to meals the irs isn't particularly clear. the cushy life out in the expansive offices of silicon valley. it comes with lots of bonuses but not all of them are cash. >> we have yoga. we have pilates. >> sushi is great. >> reporter: but free lunch, you know there is no such thing. >> there is any type of amazing cuisine even better than some restaurants in new york. >> reporter: big tech companies out west are in fierce competition to attract top talent so aren't the least bit shy about publicizing their perks. as the april 15th tax deadline nears "the wall street journal" reports there is a debate looming about whether all the freebies ought to be taxable. the irs has stringent guidelines on what employers can feed their employees and the

the lead's erin mcpike is here to explain the point of all this and why some groups are against it. much information maybe. no? why do people want to do this? >> maybe. but it's all over a trade battle that's been going on for the past couple years. some of our neighbors -- canada and mexico -- have been accusing the united states of protectionism for the last few years but it's all over just a few words of fine print that you may never pay attention to anyway. how carefully do you read the label on that package of ground round or pork chops when you grab it at a grocery store? >> i'm not getting this. >> reporter: if a new regulation goes through soon you'll be able to tell where the cow was raised and slaughtered. >> i don't think it really matters. we don't know what was happening in australia or new zealand or how it was killed in the u.s. we just know it's here on the shelf, ready to go. >> the new labels are the product of a battle between american farmers and the larger meat industry. before this new rule, meat raised in, say, mexico could be labeled as a product of the usa s

erin mcpike explains how the fight over the availability of plan b has been years in the making. b commercial) "plan b is emergency contraception meant to be taken within 72 hours after having unprotected sex" >> reporter: the drug, called plan b, doesn't terminate pregnancy like ru- 486, commonly called "the abortion pill." instead, it's meant to prevent pregnancy by using a higher dosage of birth control taken within three days of unprotected sex. and yet, the emotional debate over access to the morning-after pill, or plan b, stretches back almost a decade, when the bush administration refused to allow women of any age to obtain it over the counter. but in 2006, bush's fda eventually ordered plan b to be made readily available to women 18-years and older. shortly after obama took office it was lowered to 17 and older. but that wasn't enough for the center for reproductive rights, a group that has argued for years that the drug should be widely available to all women. so they pursued the case further. and the fda agreed. in december 2011, commissioner margaret hamburg said in a

let's go to erin mcpike now in washington. ill the new labels tell us? >> well, don, for the most part, this whole ordeal says a lot about the intricate laws and the lengthy time it takes to implement them. in 2002, congress wanted the country of origin for meat and for fish, but it wasn't mandatory to label meat with these stamps that basically say product of the u.s. or product of mexico or even product of mixed origin until 2009, seven years later, because there was a lot of blowback from big businesses that were bringing in livestock from other countries, so they tried to delay it. now, the current battle is not about food safety or transparency at all, it's really a battle over trade. so, canada with some support from other countries filed a dispute with the world trade organization when that labeling went into effect in '09. the complaint basically was these labels do real damage to their exports, and, of course, big american businesses that then sell what they've imported from mexico or canada didn't like it either. it t

erin mcpike is here with more. , not the first time the administration has turned to the kennedy clan for an aambassadorship. >> that's true. joe kennedy sr., caroline's grandfather, was the ambassador to the uk under fdr. so there's that. but also the japanese connection comes in because her uncle, rfk, was attorney general under her father, jfk. he sent rfk to japan in 1962 to repair the tensions between tokyo and washington at that time. now, jake, i will will tell you that the white house did caution us today that she hasn't been officially nominated yet and they vet a lot of different people for a lot of different things all of the time. but we can say that caroline kennedy has been priming herself for a bigger role for the past couple of years. >> caroline was born. >> she was america's daughter with an early flair for poetry. she even named her famous pony macaroni. the white house was her playground. ♪ owe camelot >> reporter: but tragedy struck cam aa lot. had after her father's assassination and public chi

let's go to erin mcpike at the boston hospital where dzhokhar is being treated. he's under restraint, handcuffed to his bed. i gather that hospital room was a busy place. what was going thereon? >> reporter: that's right. at about 11:30 on monday morning it was the initial court hearing at his bedside. a judge and several attorneys came in to read tsarnaev both his rights and explain the charges that have been filed against him. now since that time, that lasted only about 10 or 15 minutes, but every couple of hours federal investigators have come into his room with the presence of doctors and have asked him some questions not just about if there were other explosive devices, if there were other attacks that were being planned, but also these other questions about who else might have been involved or who else might have known about the attacks that they planned to carry out and did last monday. >> now there are all kinds of questions about how this would proceed legally. one of the biggest ones was whether he would be reminded of his right to an attorney and wheth

erin mcpike reporting from rhode island. thank you. we're also getting new details on a man who's been accused of brainwashing the boston marathon bombing suspect tamerlan tsarnaev and turning him into a strict islamist. the man has been referred to only so far as misha by members of the tsarnaevriter for the ne review of books actually tracked him down to a modest apartment in rhode island. listen as he describes their conversation. >> when i asked him about tamerlan tsarnaev, it was quite -- he made it very clear that he had indeed known him. he did not specify any details about the nature of their relationship, but he was very, very, very intent on explaining that he had nothing to do with any kind of radicalization. what he told me was i was not his teacher. if i had been his teacher, i would make sure he knew that doing something like this was wrong. >> brian todd's joining us now from rhode island as well. brian, what can you tell us as misha? because when iinterviewed the former brother-in-law of the tsarnaev brothers, he insist

. >> erin mcpike, thank you very much. reporting from rhode island tonight. female dna on at least one of the bombs. breaking news tonight. that's what authorities are saying as they continue investigates the boston marathon terror attacks. we want to emphasize, it's unclear whose dna it is and it is unclear whether, when we find out who that person is that person actually helped build the bomb or carry out the attacks. it could be a crucial link. joining me on the phone, a forensic expert and adviser to the state department regarding forensic science laboratories in the ukraine. good to have you with us lawrence. >> it's a pleasure. >> all right. let me just ask you -- i know there are a variety of scenarios here. obviously, they are collecting dna from the wife. they now have female dna on the bomb. make this clear. she could have if it is her dna -- and we'll get to why it could be someone else's in a moment. she could have come into contact with this and not have anything to do with making it right? >> that's absolutely correct. we're talking about skin c

i'm going to bring in our special correspondent on the jay-z/beyonce beat, erin mcpike. with this bustup? >> there are a couple of republicans in congress from south florida very anti-castro area, and they're upset because the pictures of jay-z and beyonce in cuba make it look like they were vacationing, which u.s. law strictly prohibits tourism in cuba. so the thing they may have done is obtain a license from the treasury department which allows you to go on trips for cultural exchange. now, if you violate that, you can be fined about $65,000, which to them might be a drop in the bucket. >> that's in the couch, behind the seats of the couch at the beyonce house. i know. i've been there. i haven't. just joking. go on. >> well, they just haven't answered. the white house directed reporters to treasury today. treasury is saying that they don't comment on individual cases. and cnn has reached out to representatives for jay-z and beyonce, and they're not saying anything either. >> but this has become something of a skirmish people upset with them being here. then senator jef

"out front," tim clemente, former fbi agent on counterterrorism who worked the investigations in the u.s. embassy bombings and "uss ko s " and senior intelligence adviser to the fbi, between the two of you, knowing more than anybody else we're glad to have you tonight. we saw tamerlan tsarnaev's wife leaving home for the first time in several days today. she could be the closest link to the tsarnaev brothers, phil. of course she -- she lived in a very small apartment with them and doing this. planninis it's unclear whether she knew anything at all. do you think that there's a way that she wouldn't have known anything

the lead's erin mcpike is here with phase one of clinton's re-emergence. >> she is hard at work on ae at the state department and foreign affairs due out in 2014. also in the coming months she'll be talking about the economy and housing so pretty wide range of issues, right? well, her spokesman said to me today that she can walk and chew gum at the same time and isn't that something that we're used to hearing from our presidential hopefuls? here she comes again. just two months have gone by since hillary clinton left the state department saying she wanted to finally enjoy life as a private citizen. but it didn't take long to get her out of the sweats and back into the spotlight. on tuesday evening she is set to make her first official speech since leaving public life. on friday, she'll headline a women's event in new york and later this month a housing event in dallas. her first paid speech for an undisclosed sum. in june, she heads to the economic club of grand rapids in michigan. >> she's no less interesting to people now than she was two years ago, five years ago, ten years ago, o

erin mcpike, thanks. so many people here in boston are hurt or know someone hurt or killed. tonight we want to introduce you to someone who has a unique perspective on the attack. a man who knew not only one of the suspects in middle school but also one of the victims. they played soccer, walked home from school together. he also, marvin also knew cryst krystle campbell, for two years worked together at a local restaurant. and marvin salazar joins me now. thanks for being with us. i can't imagine what you have been going through over the last nine days. to know two people involved in this. first of all, tell me about krystal campbell. what was she like? >> krystal campbell was definitely one of my favorite restaurant managers. i've been working in restaurants over five years and i've never met a manager who worked harder than krystal and kept such a beautiful face. she had a smile everywhere she went. any time you needed to talk to her, she would talk to you. >> that's one of the things her mom said. she smiled. >> that smile. very special. i mean -- we had a lot of memories

erin mcpike is outside that home. >> the only time we have seen her in the past week was tuesday morningy afternoon when she left the household with her attorneys and they took her both times to their office and on friday afternoon she met with those attorneys for about 90 minutes. we don't yet know whether or not the fbi has gotten a chance to question her. when she arrived at her attorney's office on friday, i did get a chance to ask her how she was doing, and if she could tell us what was happening. she didn't answer those questions and the attorneys ushered her inside. i can only tell you she just looked overwhelmed and bewildered with what was going on. we do know security vehicles have been stationed outside her house all week and when a family member leaves a security vehicle generally trails them. we haven't seen katie russell outside the house other than meeting with the attorneys and we know the fbi is very interested what she has to know about tamerlan, dzhokhar, and what was going on inside the tiny apartment they lived in cambridge, carol, and as far as we know the investiga

erin mcpike in washington, our thanks to you. >> thanks, erin.house speech writer and communications director, he is now worldwide chair and ceo of a public relations firm. don, good morning. it may be 2013, it's berman said it's never too early. i want to begin with last night. because obviously last night that whole event was about politics, it was about women but everyone is whispering, not really whispering as much anymore about hillary in 2016. you know her. you worked with her. do you think she's considering it seriously? >> i'm sure she's seriously considering it. but i'm sure she's also seriously taking her time and trying to get used to life after the state department, and you know, more than 20 years in the limelight, she's writing a book that i know she's going to be taking seriously because she always takes projects like that very seriously. i can remember being on this network 123 years ago, the day president clinton actually left office, and i joked then that when they were 85 years old, the media would be interested in whether the
